Giving Back

Tomorrow night is Randy’s 6th Annual Re-Gifting Party. Apparently, in Randy’s pre-Karl world, this shin-dig developed into a very special event for many people. The concept is simple: take that gawd-awful gift you received and have no use for, wrap it up, and attend a Yankee Swap. At the end of the night, people will have had enough wine to create a decent enough buzz to not feel horrible about going home with a package of tighty-whities. Or a Foghat poster.

I’ve already warned the attendees that I’m regifting the dreadful “gift” I received at last year’s Re-Gifting Party. Oh yes, I’m sharing the love…for the second time.

Actually, the festivities will begin tonight. Like I said, this party seems to be the big “to-do” in Randy’s world. Two friends from NYC are arriving tonight and staying with us for the weekend – all to attend this party. One of these friends has come from NYC for 6 years just to be here!

The pic above is of me from the party two years ago. I desparately wanted that Lucy head for myself, but some damn lesbians got it in the end.

I went home with matching single-stem pewter faces. I’m still bitter.
